Science Communication


Voss co director Heather Leslie shared her story of engaged scholarship as part of a blog carnival orchestrated by COMPASS. Read more at the COMPASS blog and Heather’s website. We invite you to join the conversation and comment here or on the COMPASS site or with a blog post of your own!

In 2012, the fellows tried their hands at video production – a sometimes challenging, but effective medium for communicating with many audiences. Three teams of students developed 90-second videos to capture a message related to their projects, their passions, and their roles as scientist-translators. Take a few minutes to enjoy their products and let us know what you think.
